Tuesday



The fishing and the wind picked up for our trip Tuesday. Thanks to Jesse and his buddies for fishing with us today. They did a great job dealing with the choppy conditions. We caught 25 gaffer dolphins and a few bailers today on a temperature change with eel grass on it. Thanks again, see you next time.

Weekend Fishing

I cant say much for the meat fishing over the weekend. The conditions were beautiful, but the fish weren't there in enough numbers to support the amount of boats that were fishing. We did catch a few tunas and some dolphin on every trip. The weather was perfect and our crowds had a good time

The good news is that the boats fishing south of us in Morehead City and Hatteras have had real good dolphin fishing, so they should be moving our way.  There were also 20+ blue marlin seen yesterday by the fleet of boats fishing out of Hatteras.

First Billfish!

Friday we caught our first billfish of the year. After catching a limit of bailer dolphin and a couple of 40 lb yellowfins, we hooked a 200 lb blue marlin on 30 lb test tackle. One hour later we released her unharmed! Thanks!

Saturday the meat fishing slowed down a bit for the fleet. We did catch our first white marlin of the year……Thanks for checking in.
